Webber takes second Hornets loan spell

By Simon Fudge

DANNY WEBBER has returned to Division One side Watford for the new season by taking a second loan spell with the Vicarage Road club.

The 20-year-old striker will go into Ray Lewington's side for Tuesday's home-opener against Millwall after completing his second loan move from Manchester United.

Webber scored two goals in five appearances during last season's loan spell with The Hornets and Lewington is in need of some firepower upfront with Heidar Helguson and Gifton Noel-Williams both out injured.

On the loan signing of Webber, Lewington said: "He's a year wiser and a year stronger and he gives us options in a very important area of the field."

With spots in Sir Alex Ferguson's side few and far between at the moment, Webber has taken advantage to earn more first team experience by helping Watford through the early part of this season.
